Coyne PR Awarded Best of Show Honors
At The 56th Annual NJ Ad Club Jersey Awards

      The New Jersey Advertising Club delivered another successful Jersey Awards. Friends and colleagues reunited at
The Grove where they mingled, networked and celebrated their winning awards with their team. With 383 submissions,
the number of entries increased for the 4th year in a row, a positive trend that we expect will continue. 

      Chaired by Gary Denburg, the atmosphere was electric and the ceremony exciting as ever. Herb Barry, Interstate Outdoor and Terrie Carr, Program Director at 105.5 WDHA, co-emceed and presented 224 Trophies and Awards of Excellence to corporations, agencies, designers and non-profit groups with their usual style and humor.

      OUTFRONT Media, a major sponsor of the New Jersey Advertising Club presented the fourth Annual Outfront Edge Award to Kraus Marketing for their wide scope of creative work entered in this year’s event. A newly created trophy was awarded to them. 

      The Club has been going strong for over 60 years and remains the largest association in the state of New Jersey representing Advertisers, Marketers, Media, and PR professionals. Our longevity and growth have allowed us to offer virtual judging, which has led to a more diverse and prestigious group of marketing and advertising professionals to be jurors. This year’s jurors were in California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Louisiana, New York, Pennsylvania and Texas. The prestigious group judged and awarded trophies for First Place, Second Place, Awards of Excellence, Best in Category and Best of Show.

      Our appreciation goes out to Eric Ortiz, O2 Advertising, for a phenomenal opening video, and for providing all the graphics, web pages, email blasts, billboard designs and PPT’s for the awards ceremony, and to the Club’s Marketing Committee for their help with all our Social Media posts. As usual, a huge debt of gratitude goes to Pat Hanley and her staff, for going above and beyond and for embracing new technologies, which allowed us to produce this celebration.

      The Jersey Awards committee includes Herb Barry, Interstate Outdoor; Beverly Barnes, SGW Integrated Marketing Communications, Grace DePaola, Marketing/Advertising Consultant; Nancy Fischer, NCF Design; Robin Kantor, Newark Trade Digital Graphics; Eric Ortiz, O2 Advertising; Allegra Sandelli, Marketing Consultant; Sandra Schler, Non-Profit Consultant; and Gary Denburg, GarDen Printing.
